Watermelon Mint Sorbet

With watermelon season coming to a close I thought I would give you all a recipe to savor the flavors of summer before it officially ends. I bought some watermelon from my farmer’s market a month ago and knowing I would now be able to finish it all before it got too mushy, I decided to cube and freeze a bunch. When I rediscovered the cubes in some tupperware at the back of my freezer I was very excited to say the least. I’ll certainly be buying some more watermelon at the market this coming weekend to freeze so that I can savor the flavors of summer throughout the Fall with this refreshing mint watermelon sorbet.

Serves 1-2

Ingredients:
2 cups frozen cubed watermelon
4-5 fresh mint leaves
2-4 tablespoons lemonade
1-3 teaspoons sweetener of choice (agave, honey, coconut sugar just to name a few)

Directions:
Place everything into a blender and begin by adding 1 tablespoon of lemonade. I would suggest adding only a bit of sweetener at this time so you can taste to see your preference.
Blend and add your second tablespoon of lemonade. Scrape mixture down from sides and keep blending. Add lemonde by the tablespoon until desired consistency is reached.
Scoop and serve immediately.
May be stored in the freezer but pull out to that for about 10 minutes before serving.
